First Zelda game I ever played was Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. I was playing it at my friend's house on the NES and didn't think much of it. Years later when I had my own N64 i tried Ocarina of Time and absolutely loved it. Then I followed up with Majora's Mask and have been buying pretty much all the Zelda games ever since.

@NeonPizza That's the one! Thanks for reminding me

I first heard of Metroid from the 90's cartoon where several video game characters banded together to fight Mother Brain. The first time I played a Metroid game was on the SNES with Super Medtroid. Loved the series ever since and played all the games.

Would rather see more info and footage from BotW2 and Metroid Prime 4. Or even a new F-Zero game. Or Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HD coming out on Switch.

@mariomaster96 I don’t care about splatoon either. Direct needs more Zelda and Metroid footage.

New Nintendo hardware coming April 2023

Looks like Twilight Princess Link. I wonder if somebody has tipped off the manufacturer about a Twilight Princess HD release for Switch

"Citing difficulties with the procurement of important components."

What they actually mean is, nobody is making those raggedy old parts anymore because chip makers have moved onto better tech. Hell, even Nintendo themselves have already started putting HDMI 2.0 sockets on their Switch OLED Docks because nobody was making HDMI 1.4 anymore

I love the Streets of Rage music, so much nostalgia

RIP you will be missed

I'm all for paid DLC for extra story chapters, maps, cosmetic skins etc. But having to roll dice for those items and may or may not get the one im trying to pay for is a huge no no. Let us buy each skin or DLC outright. No random chance BS. Gambling should have absolutely no place in the purchasing of DLC/cosmetics.

That’s cool if true. I’d love a new F-zero game on Switch

Never even seen one before O.o

I honestly wouldn’t mind if they ditched the larger directs as long as they made more frequent shorter directs.

LOL this game is coming purely because Nintendont refuse to make a new F-Zero

When HASN'T a Goldeneye remaster been in limbo?

I'd totally be up for a new F-Zero game. Loved SNES and N64 versions.

Nothing of value in the mini Direct. Next!

Nintendo can shove that Direct-ly into the bin.

Garbage Direct

Coming from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, I was hoping Wind Waker would have even better more realistic graphics. So I was really pissed when they released a new Zelda game with cell-shaded graphics. But honestly, after playing it and seeing toon Link's expressions, I came to find the art style as quite endearing. Would I have preferred a more realistic look? Sure. But Wind Waker worked out alright and I still love revisiting it to this day. Then Twilight Princess followed after it and I fell in love with the Zelda franchise all over again. Midna is easily the best companion so far

Oh man I would love a HD remake of Eternal Darkness.

Holy ***** that is pure nightmare fuel. Excellent artwork

They frakking better had!

Is this the new Windows Media Player?

Despite the difficulty of the task, they did a great job

Good. NFT stands for 'No F***ing Thanks!'

All they need to do to differentiate the current Switch with the next one is call it Switch 2. This is a clear indication that its a successor, unlike Wii U which just sounded like a weird Wii variant

lol this is literally Streets of Rage re-skinned XD

I'm betting Nintendo will release the Switch 2 in spring 2023 and have BotW2 as its main launch title.

Bring out a Super Switch that can do 4K @ 60fps along with a Zelda Anthology full of 4K remasters and watch them sell 214 million units in the first year.

Fantastic game, well deserving of its praise

@BrianJL lol "Samus don't use your abilities that you've always used to get yourself out of danger unless I tell you to." I think i prefer Adam as a disembodied AI.

Metroid Other M was a failure because it was the only Metroid game which portrayed Samus as subservient when in all other previous Metroid games, she was brave and independant. Fortunately Metroid Dread has restored her character's strength and charisma

Rightly so. It's one of the true greats

I honestly couldn't care less if they improve it or not. I still wouldn't buy it.

Why TF would anybody let go of the thing thats letting them control the game?

BotW2 will be a dual release for Switch and Switch 2. The original Switch will just have lower graphics settings to keep frame rates playable.

She does kinda look like Twilight Princess Zelda already

Looks good but the frame rate could use some de-judder

I think they'll release it in Spring 2023 as a dual launch title for the current gen Switch and its successor the Super Switch/Switch 2/Switch Pro.

It's so they can bring it out as a Switch 2 launch title.

You have to some special sort of vile creature to not like Majora’s Mask.

I think this is the perfect opportunity for Nintendo to bring out an official OoT HD remaster

It looks like the top of an N64 controller, minus the thumbstick and the A and B buttons.

@ATaco Quantity of Quality =/

Sellout… shakes head
